STX Entertainment has released the first Bye Bye Man clip, which reveals a way in which ten (un)lucky people will have the chance to invite The Bye Bye Man into their life…
In the film, a group of college students move into an old house and bring the furniture out of the basement, including a nightstand which Elliot (Douglas Smith) places next to his bed. The inside drawer has “don’t say it, don’t think it” scrawled all over the liner paper, hiding the carved words “The Bye Bye Man” underneath.
The Bye Bye Man stars Carrie-Anne Moss, Faye Dunaway, Douglas Smith, Cressida Bonas, Lucien Laviscount and Douglas Jones.
People commit unthinkable acts every day. Time and again, we grapple to understand what drives a person to do such terrible things. But what if all of the questions we’re asking are wrong? What if the source of all evil is not a matter of what…but who? When three college friends stumble upon the horrific origins of the Bye Bye Man, they discover that there is only one way to avoid his curse: don’t think it, don’t say it. But once the Bye Bye Man gets inside your head, he takes control. Is there a way to survive his possession?
Jonathan Penner adapted the script from the short story “The Bridge to Body Island” by Robert Damon Schneck, while Stacy Title (The Last Supper) directs. The Bye Bye Man opens in theaters on January 13, 2017.
